49ers sign Ogbo Okoronkwo to bolster edge rusher depth

The San Francisco 49ers have reached an agreement to sign veteran edge rusher Ogbo Okoronkwo during training camp on August 5, 2026. This move comes as the team faces injuries among key players, particularly in the edge rusher group. Okoronkwo, a former Super Bowl champion, previously played for the Cleveland Browns and Philadelphia Eagles. He is expected to add depth and experience to the defensive line, having recorded 3.0 sacks last season while appearing in 16 games with the Browns. The 31-year-old will reunite with defensive coordinator Raheem Morris, with whom he previously worked at the Rams.
